CGiii Comment

It looks and sounds like a group of friends went to Brazil and made a film without any forethought...or money.

Instead of playing it for laughs and having a jolly good time - they bury themselves up to the neck in depression.

The depression that the audience suffers is having wasted time watching this incredible amalgamation of amateur twaddle.

Good packaging - don't let it mislead you.

Just look at Bruning's production credits - he specialises in trash and this is what this is - unfortunately...here, he is trying to be serious.

Appalling.
